This patch start a series of converting SLUB (mostly) to "unsigned int".
1) Most integers in the code are in fact unsigned entities: array
indexes, lengths, buffer sizes, allocation orders. It is therefore
better to use unsigned variables
2) Some integers in the code are either "size_t" or "unsigned long" for
no reason.
size_t usually comes from people trying to maintain type correctness
and figuring out that "sizeof" operator returns size_t or
memset/memcpy takes size_t so should everything passed to it.
However the number of 4GB+ objects in the kernel is very small. Most,
if not all, dynamically allocated objects with kmalloc() or
kmem_cache_create() aren't actually big. Maintaining wide types
doesn't do anything.
64-bit ops are bigger than 32-bit on our beloved x86_64,
so try to not use 64-bit where it isn't necessary
(read: everywhere where integers are integers not pointers)
3) in case of SLAB allocators, there are additional limitations
*) page->inuse, page->objects are only 16-/15-bit,
*) cache size was always 32-bit
*) slab orders are small, order 20 is needed to go 64-bit on x86_64
(PAGE_SIZE << order)
Basically everything is 32-bit except kmalloc(1ULL<<32) which gets
shortcut through page allocator.
Christoph said:
:
: That changes with large base page size on power and ARM64 f.e. but then
: we do not want to encourage larger allocations through slab anyways.

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"The main addition this time around is the new ARM "SCMI" framework,
which is the latest in a series of standards coming from ARM to do
power management in a platform independent way.
This has been through many review cycles, and it relies on a rather
interesting way of using the mailbox subsystem, but in the end I
agreed that Sudeep's version was the best we could do after all.
Other changes include:
- the ARM CCN driver is moved out of drivers/bus into drivers/perf,
which makes more sense. Similarly, the performance monitoring
portion of the CCI driver are moved the same way and cleaned up a
little more.
- a series of updates to the SCPI framework
- support for the Mediatek mt7623a SoC in drivers/soc
- support for additional NVIDIA Tegra hardware in drivers/soc
- a new reset driver for Socionext Uniphier
- lesser bug fixes in drivers/soc, drivers/tee, drivers/memory, and
drivers/firmware and drivers/reset across platforms"

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This release brings up a new platform based on the old ARM9 core: the
Nuvoton NPCM is used as a baseboard management controller, competing
with the better known ASpeed AST2xx series.
Another important change is the addition of ARMv7-A based chips in
mach-stm32. The older parts in this platform are ARMv7-M based
microcontrollers, now they are expanding to general-purpose workloads.
The other changes are the usual defconfig updates to enable additional
drivers, lesser bugfixes. The largest updates as often are the ongoing
OMAP cleanups, but we also have a number of changes for the older PXA
and davinci platforms this time.
For the Renesas shmobile/r-car platform, some new infrastructure is
needed to make the watchdog work correctly.

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
"The work on cleaning up and getting the bugs out of siginfo generation
was largely stalled this round. The progress that was made was the
definition of FPE_FLTUNK. Which is usable to fix many of the cases
where siginfo generation is erroneously generating SI_USER by setting
si_code to 0, that has recently been tagged as FPE_FIXME.
You already have the change by way of the arm64 tree as that
definition was pulled into the arm64 tree to allow fixing the problem
there.
What remains is the second round of fixing for what I thought was a
trivial change to the struct siginfo when put the union in _sigfault
where it belongs. Do to historical reasons 32bit m68k only ensures
that pointers are 2 byte aligned. So I have added a m68k test case
made of BUILD_BUG_ONs to verify I have this fix correct and possibly
catch problems, and I have computed the number of bytes of padding
needed for the _addr_bnd and _addr_pkey cases and just use an array of
characters that size.
For pure paranoia I have written the code so if there is an
architecture out there that does not perform any alignment of
structures it should still work.
With the removal of all of the stale arechitectures this cycle future
work on cleaning up struct siginfo should be much easier. Almost all
of the conflicting si_code definitions have been removed with the
removal of (blackfin, tile, and frv). Plus some of the most difficult
to test cases have simply been removed from the tree.
Which means that with a little luck copy_siginfo_to_user can become a
light weight wrapper around copy_to_user in the next cycle"

Pull f2fs update from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, we've mainly focused on performance tuning and critical
bug fixes occurred in low-end devices. Sheng Yong introduced
lost_found feature to keep missing files during recovery instead of
thrashing them. We're preparing coming fsverity implementation. And,
we've got more features to communicate with users for better
performance. In low-end devices, some memory-related issues were
fixed, and subtle race condtions and corner cases were addressed as
well.
Enhancements:
- large nat bitmaps for more free node ids
- add three block allocation policies to pass down write hints given by user
- expose extension list to user and introduce hot file extension
- tune small devices seamlessly for low-end devices
- set readdir_ra by default
- give more resources under gc_urgent mode regarding to discard and cleaning
- introduce fsync_mode to enforce posix or not
- nowait aio support
- add lost_found feature to keep dangling inodes
- reserve bits for future fsverity feature
- add test_dummy_encryption for FBE
Bug fixes:
- don't use highmem for dentry pages
- align memory boundary for bitops
- truncate preallocated blocks in write errors
- guarantee i_times on fsync call
- clear CP_TRIMMED_FLAG correctly
- prevent node chain loop during recovery
- avoid data race between atomic write and background cleaning
- avoid unnecessary selinux violation warnings on resgid option
- GFP_NOFS to avoid deadlock in quota and read paths
- fix f2fs_skip_inode_update to allow i_size recovery

In the effort to remove all VLAs from the kernel[1], it is desirable to
build with -Wvla. However, this warning is overly pessimistic, in that
it is only happy with stack array sizes that are declared as constant
expressions, and not constant values. One case of this is the
evaluation of the max() macro which, due to its construction, ends up
converting constant expression arguments into a constant value result.
All attempts to rewrite this macro with __builtin_constant_p() failed
with older compilers (e.g. gcc 4.4)[2]. However, Martin Uecker,
constructed[3] a mind-shattering solution that works everywhere.
Cthulhu fhtagn!
This patch updates the min()/max() macros to evaluate to a constant
expression when called on constant expression arguments. This removes
several false-positive stack VLA warnings from an x86 allmodconfig build
when -Wvla is added:
$ diff -u before.txt after.txt | grep ^-
-drivers/input/touchscreen/cyttsp4_core.c:871:2: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable length array ‘ids’ [-Wvla]
-fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c:344:4: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable length array ‘namebuf’ [-Wvla]

-net/ipv6/proc.c:218:2: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable length array ‘buff64’ [-Wvla]
This also updates two cases where different enums were being compared
and explicitly casts them to int (which matches the old side-effect of
the single-evaluation code): one in tpm/tpm_tis_core.h, and one in
drm/drm_color_mgmt.c.

The updates in the command mailbox include increasing the
access mode type field to 5 bits in order to support additional
types such as MLX5_MKC_ACCESS_MODE_MEMIC which represents device
memory access type and will be used when registering MR on allocated
device memory.
All the places that use the old access mode format are adjusted as

This patch adds querying of device memory capabilities by the mlx5_core
driver during initialization.
Device memory capabilities is a new capability type and structure
which contains the necessary data that is needed for future device
memory allocation.
The presence of this new capabilities struct is indicated in the
general capabilities struct which is queried first by the driver.
If the presence bit is set, the driver will also query the new
capabilities struct and save it in the device context.

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"This became a large update. The changes are scattered widely, and the
majority of them are attributed to ASoC componentization. The gitk
output made me dizzy, but it's slightly better than London tube.
OK, below are some highlights:
- Continued hardening works in ALSA PCM core; most of the existing
syzkaller reports should have been covered.
- USB-audio got the initial USB Audio Class 3 support, as well as
UAC2 jack detection support and more DSD-device support.
- ASoC componentization: finally each individual driver was converted
to components framework, which is more future-proof for further
works. Most of conversations were systematic.
- Lots of fixes for Intel Baytrail / Cherrytrail devices with Realtek
codecs, typically tablets and small PCs.
- Fixes / cleanups for Samsung Odroid systems
- Cleanups in Freescale SSI driver
- New ASoC drivers:
* AKM AK4458 and AK5558 codecs
* A few AMD based machine drivers
* Intel Kabylake machine drivers
* Maxim MAX9759 codec
* Motorola CPCAP codec
* Socionext Uniphier SoCs

Push the decision whether or not to stop the tick somewhat deeper
into the idle loop.
Stopping the tick upfront leads to unpleasant outcomes in case the
idle governor doesn't agree with the nohz code on the duration of the
upcoming idle period. Specifically, if the tick has been stopped and
the idle governor predicts short idle, the situation is bad regardless
of whether or not the prediction is accurate. If it is accurate, the
tick has been stopped unnecessarily which means excessive overhead.
If it is not accurate, the CPU is likely to spend too much time in
the (shallow, because short idle has been predicted) idle state
selected by the governor [1].
As the first step towards addressing this problem, change the code
to make the tick stopping decision inside of the loop in do_idle().
In particular, do not stop the tick in the cpu_idle_poll() code path.
Also don't do that in tick_nohz_irq_exit() which doesn't really have
enough information on whether or not to stop the tick.

Prepare the scheduler tick code for reworking the idle loop to
avoid stopping the tick in some cases.
The idea is to split the nohz idle entry call to decouple the idle
time stats accounting and preparatory work from the actual tick stop
code, in order to later be able to delay the tick stop once we reach
more power-knowledgeable callers.
Move away the tick_nohz_start_idle() invocation from
__tick_nohz_idle_enter(), rename the latter to
__tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() and define tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick()
as a wrapper around it for calling it from the outside.
Make tick_nohz_idle_enter() only call tick_nohz_start_idle() instead
of calling the entire __tick_nohz_idle_enter(), add another wrapper
disabling and enabling interrupts around tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick()
and make the current callers of tick_nohz_idle_enter() call it too
to retain their current functionality.

"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.17 kernel cycle:
New drivers:
- Nintendo Wii GameCube GPIO, known as "Hollywood"
- Raspberry Pi mailbox service GPIO expander
- Spreadtrum main SC9860 SoC and IEC GPIO controllers.
Improvements:
- Implemented .get_multiple() callback for most of the
high-performance industrial GPIO cards for the ISA bus.
- ISA GPIO drivers now select the ISA_BUS_API instead of depending on
it. This is merged with the same pattern for all the ISA drivers
and some other Kconfig cleanups related to this.
Cleanup:
- Delete the TZ1090 GPIO drivers following the deletion of this SoC
from the ARM tree.
- Move the documentation over to driver-api to conform with the rest
of the kernel documentation build.
- Continue to make the GPIO drivers include only
<linux/gpio/driver.h> and not the too broad <linux/gpio.h> that we
want to get rid of.

It may be useful for an architecture to override the definitions of the
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE0() and __COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros in
<linux/compat.h>, in particular to use a different calling convention
for syscalls. This patch provides a mechanism to do so, based on the
previously introduced CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER. If it is enabled,
<asm/sycall_wrapper.h> is included in <linux/compat.h> and may be used
to define the macros mentioned above. Moreover, as the syscall calling
convention may be different if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is set,
the compat syscall function prototypes in <linux/compat.h> are #ifndef'd
out in that case.
As some of the syscalls and/or compat syscalls may not be present,
the COND_SYSCALL() and COND_SYSCALL_COMPAT() macros in kernel/sys_ni.c
as well as the SYS_NI() and COMPAT_SYS_NI() macros in
kernel/time/posix-stubs.c can be re-defined in <asm/syscall_wrapper.h> iff
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is enabled.

Let's make use of ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y on pure 64-bit x86-64 systems:
Each syscall defines a stub which takes struct pt_regs as its only
argument. It decodes just those parameters it needs, e.g:
asmlinkage long sys_xyzzy(const struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return SyS_xyzzy(regs->di, regs->si, regs->dx);
}
This approach avoids leaking random user-provided register content down
the call chain.
For example, for sys_recv() which is a 4-parameter syscall, the assembly
now is (in slightly reordered fashion):
<sys_recv>:
callq <__fentry__>
/* decode regs->di, ->si, ->dx and ->r10 */
mov 0x70(%rdi),%rdi
mov 0x68(%rdi),%rsi
mov 0x60(%rdi),%rdx
mov 0x38(%rdi),%rcx
[ SyS_recv() is automatically inlined by the compiler,
as it is not [yet] used anywhere else ]
/* clear %r9 and %r8, the 5th and 6th args */
xor %r9d,%r9d
xor %r8d,%r8d
/* do the actual work */
callq __sys_recvfrom
/* cleanup and return */
cltq
retq
The only valid place in an x86-64 kernel which rightfully calls
a syscall function on its own -- vsyscall -- needs to be modified
to pass struct pt_regs onwards as well.
To keep the syscall table generation working independent of
SYSCALL_PTREGS being enabled, the stubs are named the same as the
"original" syscall stubs, i.e. sys_*().
This patch is based on an original proof-of-concept

and was split up and heavily modified by me, in particular to base it on
ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER, to limit it to 64-bit-only for the time being,
and to update the vsyscall to the new calling convention.

For some as yet not understood reason, Tony gets unaligned access
traps on IA64 because of:
struct util_est ue = READ_ONCE(p->se.avg.util_est);
and:
WRITE_ONCE(p->se.avg.util_est, ue);
introduced by commit:
d519329f72 ("sched/fair: Update util_est only on util_avg updates")
Normally those two fields should end up on an 8-byte aligned location,
but UP and RANDSTRUCT can mess that up so enforce the alignment
explicitly.
Also make the alignment on sched_avg unconditional, as it is really
about data locality, not false-sharing.
With or without this patch the layout for sched_avg on a
ia64-defconfig build looks like:
$ pahole -EC sched_avg ia64-defconfig/kernel/sched/core.o
die__process_function: tag not supported (INVALID)!
struct sched_avg {
/* typedef u64 */ long long unsigned int last_update_time; /* 0 8 */

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"Nothing particularly stands out here, probably because people were
tied up with spectre/meltdown stuff last time around. Still, the main
pieces are:
- Rework of our CPU features framework so that we can whitelist CPUs
that don't require kpti even in a heterogeneous system
- Support for the IDC/DIC architecture extensions, which allow us to
elide instruction and data cache maintenance when writing out
instructions
- Removal of the large memory model which resulted in suboptimal
codegen by the compiler and increased the use of literal pools,
which could potentially be used as ROP gadgets since they are
mapped as executable
- Rework of forced signal delivery so that the siginfo_t is
well-formed and handling of show_unhandled_signals is consolidated
and made consistent between different fault types
- More siginfo cleanup based on the initial patches from Eric
Biederman
- Workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum #1024718
- Some small ACPI IORT updates and cleanups from Lorenzo Pieralisi
- Misc cleanups and non-critical fixes"

"The usual pile of boring changes:
- Consolidate tasklet functions to share code instead of duplicating
it
- The first step for making the low level entry handler management on
multi-platform kernels generic
- A new sysfs file which allows to retrieve the wakeup state of
interrupts.
- Ensure that the interrupt thread follows the effective affinity and
not the programmed affinity to avoid cross core wakeups.
- Two new interrupt controller drivers (Microsemi Ocelot and Qualcomm
PDC)
- Fix the wakeup path clock handling for Reneasas interrupt chips.
- Rework the boot time register reset for ARM GIC-V2/3

Pull time(r) updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of updates for timers and timekeeping:
- The most interesting change is the consolidation of clock MONOTONIC
and clock BOOTTIME.
Clock MONOTONIC behaves now exactly like clock BOOTTIME and does
not longer ignore the time spent in suspend. A new clock
MONOTONIC_ACTIVE is provived which behaves like clock MONOTONIC in
kernels before this change. This allows applications to
programmatically check for the clock MONOTONIC behaviour.
As discussed in the review thread, this has the potential of
breaking user space and we might have to revert this. Knock on wood
that we can avoid that exercise.
- Updates to the NTP mechanism to improve accuracy
- A new kernel internal data structure to aid the ongoing Y2038 work.
- Cleanups and simplifications of the clocksource code.
- Make the alarmtimer code play nicely with debugobjects"

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"There are a several user visible changes, the rest is mostly invisible
and continues to clean up the whole code base.
User visible changes:
- new mount option nossd_spread (pair for ssd_spread)
- mount option subvolid will detect junk after the number and fail
the mount
- add message after cancelled device replace
- direct module dependency on libcrc32, removed own crc wrappers
- removed user space transaction ioctls
- use lighter locking when reading /proc/self/mounts, RCU instead of
mutex to avoid unnecessary contention
Enhancements:
- skip writeback of last page when truncating file to same size
- send: do not issue unnecessary truncate operations
- mount option token specifiers: use %u for unsigned values, more
validation
- selftests: more tree block validations
qgroups:
- preparatory work for splitting reservation types for data and
metadata, this should allow for more accurate tracking and fix some
issues with underflows or do further enhancements
- split metadata reservations for started and joined transaction so
they do not get mixed up and are accounted correctly at commit time
- with the above, it's possible to revert patch that potentially
deadlocks when trying to make more space by explicitly committing
when the quota limit is hit
- fix root item corruption when multiple same source snapshots are
created with quota enabled
RAID56:
- make sure target is identical to source when raid56 rebuild fails
after dev-replace
- faster rebuild during scrub, batch by stripes and not
block-by-block
- make more use of cached data when rebuilding from a missing device
Fixes:
- null pointer deref when device replace target is missing
- fix fsync after hole punching when using no-holes feature
- fix lockdep splat when allocating percpu data with wrong GFP flags
Cleanups, refactoring, core changes:
- drop redunant parameters from various functions
- kill and opencode trivial helpers
- __cold/__exit function annotations
- dead code removal
- continued audit and documentation of memory barriers
- error handling: handle removal from uuid tree
- error handling: remove handling of impossible condtitons
- more debugging or error messages
- updated tracepoints
- one VLA use removal (and one still left)"
